Reddit Team Preview: Iran

I've just whipped it up quickly and I thought I'd run it by you guys to see if there are some glaring errors or mistakes I made, or if there is something I missed. Note, this isn't the full preview, just the 23 man squad and the starting 11. You can find the full preview when it gets posted on the subreddit very soon.
Goalkeepers
Alireza Beiranvand
Rashid Mazaheri
Hossein Hosseini
Defenders
Vouria Ghafouri
Jalal Hosseini
Milad Mohammadi
Morteza Pouraliganji
Majid Hosseini
Pejman Montazeri
Aghaei
Ramin Rezaeian
Midfielders
Ehsan Hajsafi
Saeed Ezatollahi
Masoud Shojaei
Omid Ebrahimi
Vahid Amiri
Saman Ghoddos
Alireza Jahanbakhsh
Ashkan Dejagah
Forwards
Karim Ansarifard
Mehdi Taremi
Reza Ghoochannejad*
Sardar Azmoun
Note: Kaveh Rezaei may be picked over ghoochannejad but unlikely given the particularl preference Quieroz has for the latter.Here, I am not sure about Aghaei
Potential Starting 11:
Beirandvand
Ghafoori Pouraliganji Hosseini Mohammadi
Hajsafi Karimi/Ezatollahi
Alireza Dejagah Ghoddos
Azmoun
Important Note: Ezatollahi is the starter for the national team, but he is suspended for the first match due to a red card in a qualification match. He will miss the first game but will start against Portugal/Spain.
Thanks guys. This is not necessarily the lineups or selections that I want, but they are what I believe Quieroz will pick. I will consider the varying opinions you guys might have (such as Rezaeian over Ghafoori), but i'm mainly interested in glaring errors i've made, such as an injury that I am not aware of or a clear indication that one or more of those players will not be there.

nice one! Thanks. I execpt allot from Sardar Azmoun and Alireza this coming World Cup! Sardar playing home against Spain so if he can score there would be a very big suprise. Spain and Portugal not the strongest anymore we saw this at EURO 2016 in France
